BWSC Reg Reform Blog Administration

In 1986, the Massachusetts Public Interest Research Group (MassPIRG) proposed and helped pass into law ballot initiative Question 4 (Q4), the Hazardous waste Cleanup Initiative, which was approved by 74 percent of voters on November 6, 1986.

On December 15th of that year, MassPIRG hosted a seminar on the new cleanup law and eventually put together a collection of backup material from the seminar.

While we work on finalizing the 2013 MCP Regulatory Reform initiative, it is interesting to look back 27 years to these earlier reforms. The PDF of the seminar background material can be downloaded here: 1987-09-21_MassPIRG_Q4_Seminar_Material.pdf
